"The most influential anticruelty novel of all time."-Bernard Unti
Black Beauty (1877), the only novel from Anna Sewell, was the first
book ever written from the singular viewpoint of an animal. The
fictional narrative, told by Black Beauty, a genial thoroughbred,
was initially written by the author "to induce kindness, sympathy,
and an understanding treatment of horses." Over time the book has
become a classic book for children, despite its initial adult
readership. The book is considered the advent of the
Anthropomorphic literary genre. Black Beauty, the gentle horse and
narrator of the story, begins with recollection of an idyllic youth
with his mother and other kind horses. When Black Beauty is four
years old, his owner sells him to Squire Gordon, who provides a
caring home among other horses. One of the squire's other horses, a
headstrong chestnut named Ginger, becomes Black Beauty's best
friend. When the squire's wife becomes seriously ill, the couple
are forced to sell their horses; in a heartbreaking turn of events,
Black Beauty is sold in a succession of transactions where he is
mistreated, overworked, and separated from Ginger. Although
scarred, Black Beauty is resilient and eventually is returned to a
life of kindness and care. This deeply moving story aimed towards
the awareness of animal welfare was influential reforms in the laws
regarding the treatment of horses; yet, its enduring legacy is the
massage of compassion that has touched readers for more than 200
years. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset
manuscript, this edition of Black Beauty is both modern and
readable.
